CSS - Fixed Width, Full Screen Width Footer
I have seen a design which I find pretty interesting where in the main site is aligned left and fixed width at say 700px wide. Yet the footer seems to span the entire screen.
The header also seems to use the entire screen width but that is beign accomplished with the background image, but this footer goes all the way to end of the screen and naturally adjusts itself under all the content. Is there a way to get this effect? Similar TutorialsHello, im trying to make Fixed width 3 columns (each column have fixed width) layout 100% height with header and footer. -Well I see alot of examples around the web, but i dont see complete one and im really tired of searching, i made the Fixed width 3 comlumns layout, left and right are absolute position, and center is relative to the header -the problem is that all columns dont fill the whole height of the browser windows, the footer doesnot work good. so the whole thing is missed up, so please show 100% working example of what i need. Thanks in Advanced Samer Hi, I have hit the "wall" in my knowledge of CSS while trying to implement a "flex-width-equal-height-sidebar-layout" style of layout as a skin/theme for a message board system and need some help. My trouble occurs when a direct link to the post is used (instead of following the menu navigation system) where the top menu information/links area (the area between the banner and the post) is chopped off... The relevant portion of the CSS seems to be the .col_wrap {margin-top: 10px; border: 0; overflow: hidden; float: left; width: 100%; position: relative; z-index: 10; clear: both;} portion of my CSS because if I take out the overflow:hidden declaration then the menu portion of the skin/theme/layout shows correctly but the sidebar the shows the part which should be hidden at the bottom and the footer completely vanishes from view! My apologies but this is the best I can do without having the ability to post pics or urls which could better explain what is wrong and frankly speaking I don't know how anyone here can help given my inability to show the problem but hopefully someone knows or has run into this problem before or can offer some resources that may be of assistance.... i ve been playing with my page and been trying to modify the width of the page (divs) according to the browswer's width. The problem is i want the navigation menu on left to be fixed width (say 200px) and the center div and the right column to be variable width. Also, i want to set a minimum width , so that the floating divs dont roll below the navigation menu. here s the link to the page. try reducing ur browser windows size . the content div rolls down under theleft nav menu. http://ccc.1asphost.com/pacemakerpr...r/cicuitlab.htm Also , i get wierd result in netscape navigator. please help Trying to delete my post but no option to delete so just removing content. I'm at the very very very begaining of a table-less design (my first, actually). The problem is, since I have decided to have a non-fixed width, when the browser is minimized, at a certain point the design breaks. See it here (please don't make fun! it's just the start): SiliconSatan.com/test.php I'd like to set a minimum width, probably on the container <div>, so at a certain point it sort of becomes like a fixed width? No smaller than a set width? [EDIT] Also, I have a question about background color mismatch, but it was not quite OT for the CSS forum: http://forums.devshed.com/web-desig...e7t-403266.html Hello all! My first post here. I have recently started working with wordpress with the catalyst dynamik child theme. I am trying to "copy" some theme i found on the internet just to see if i can and maybe learn something on the way. I know some basic CSS and HTML but nothing fancy im learning as i go. My problem is that i have used custom widget area hook to create a widget area after header (catalyst_hook_after_after_header) named it selected a layout (homepage so it shows on the home page) and i have named or assigned "sshook" class to it. The widget are appeared under the header and i added php text widget to it so i can use shortcode like [easingslider] for my slideshow plugin. So ok all that worked out and now i have a slideshow hooked in the widget area under the header. The problem is as follows. The container (?) that is behind the slideshow (.sshook) should be as wide as the page but it isnt. If i set the width to 100% it looks like it ignores it (nothing happens) i have also tried adding !important to it just to make sure it didnt inherit the width from some other element but it didnt work. This is the code i made: .sshook { width: 100% !important; margin: 0px 0px 0px -500px; padding: 0px 0px 0px 500px; background: rgb(226, 227, 227); } Margin goes -500 so that it pulls the background behind the slideshow all the way to the left border of the page and the padding 500 places the slideshow back at the center of the page but the only way i can get the background to show on the right side of the slideshow is to change width from % to px like 1400px but then it is not always spaning the whole page for people with higher resolution and if someone has lower resolution it adds a scroll bar at the bottom of the page because it goes more to the right. I hope someone understands what i am trying to ask here. If anyone needs clarification on any of this let me know and ill clarify. I'm trying to create a full width bar across the page. My current attempt is at: http://www.mixicon.com/dev/test.html It is currently working in Safari, but not in Firefox.I'm open to opinions in what I might be missing here, any thoughts? I'm mostly happy with how it looks in Safari, so I need any help to get it there in other browsers. The attached image shows what it should look like. Hey everyone, I was trying to figure out what the default display properties for a div are. What I'm trying to figure it out for is because I want to be able to set up other elements to behave the same way. This way I don't have a zillion DIVs on my page. I could set it so that My header uses something like: Code: HTML <body> <h1 id="header">Header</h1> This way I could use CSS to cause it to span the full width of the page and behave the way I'm used to having things behave. I think it might just be a width:100% but I can't find anything on it. But if I remember correctly you have to set a DIV to display:block to be able to define a width. I cant get the side menu (colored in red at the moment...will eventually be white like the rest) to overflow: auto with 100% height....i know that you need a fixed with for overflow and the only solution i could find (havent tried it tho) was to use javascript to get the window dimensions but i am trying to avoid using javascript. heres the code: <b>The Page:</b> Code: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd"> <html lang="en"> <head> <title> TEST PAGE </title> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;charset=utf-8" > <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="stylesheets/default.css"> </head> <body> <div id="content"> <div id="logo"> <img src="/Images/owlstreelogo.jpg" height="100px" width="300px" alt="Welcome to Owl's Tree"> </div> <div id="quicknav" style="height: 25px; background-image: url('/Images/quicknavbackdrop.jpg');"> <div id="quicknavtext" style="position: relative; top: 4px; margin-left: 25px; font-weight: bold; text-align: center;"> <a href="index.html">Home</a> <a href="">Profiles</a> <a href="">Chat</a> <a href="">Forums</a> <a href="">Messages</a> <a href="">Extras</a> <a href="">Tickets</a> <a href="">Suggestions</a> </div> </div> <div id="sidemenu" style="height: 405px; width: 200px; background-color: #FF0000; overflow: auto;"> <br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br> </div> </div> </body> </html> <b>The CSS</b> Code: body { background-image: url('/Images/grassbackdrop.jpg'); } a:link { color: #7E5C14; text-decoration: none; } a:visited { color: #7E5C14; text-decoration: none; } a:active { color: #000000; text-decoration: none; } a:hover { color: #00FF00; text-decoration: underline overline; } div#content { height: 100%; width: 100%; background-color: #FFFFFF; } I know that most of the css is in the page and not the external css but thats because i was modifying it heavily to see what would work and what wouldnt. The problem is the fixed width on the side menu as it wont be consistent across different screen resolutions. any help would be much appreciated as i dont want to continue work on this page until i can figure this problem out. Hi, this is my first post. I have a problem with the navigation bar on a site that I'm developing (musicboxtheatre.com). It renders properly in firefox and safari, but, of course, IE is causing problems. It renders as steps. The tabs are dropping vertically so that their tops are aligning with the bottom of the previous tabs line-height. Does anyone know of a solution? Update: I rewrote everything, and it somehow works now. Nevermind. Pretty much what the title says, is it possible to center a div in the middle of the screen without giving it a fixed width? I having a bit of a problem with my div tags. I have set a table inside the divs to a fixed width of 300px and the same with the div tag. But if I was to insert text into the table such as: 11111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111 this makes the table and div tag expand to fit the text on one line. Making is disappear off the page so people have to scroll to view the text. I have tried the CSS command of "table-layout:fixed;" but this just makes the table end and cut of the end of the text. Is there anyway round this?? Hi everyone, I'm interested in making the ads in the rightmost sidebar stay within the 900px of the layout. How can I alter this page so that: 1. The images stay inside the container div 2. If the images are larger than the rightmost column, the column expands to the left and will make the main content feed smaller. I'm still kind of rusty with how fluid width works. Site is h**p://www.topofferspage.com Hello all, I am implementing a 2 column fixed width template. The problem is that the smaller column does not stretch to match the height of the taller column. All of the online templates I have found remedy this problem by setting a 1 px high background image to span the width of the container div. My problem is that I would like to place an image at the top and bottom of the smaller column. How can I achieve this? I'm looking for a nice cross browser (well, actually I mainly interested in IE8 and ff3) 3 column layout with header and footer where the middle column has a fixed width and the left and right are variable width. I like these: http://matthewjamestaylor.com/blog/perfect-3-column.htm But none have a fixed width center column (could they be modified for a fixed width center col?) Any suggestions? Hello, How can i create a fixed-width menu to the left with content to the right that fills up the rest of the page. ie, no auto-width, it needs to fill up all the way to the right edge. So if you create a horizontal line <hr> in the content it will draw all the way to the right (except for some padding of course) Like this pictu tinyurl.com/ydsr2ov this should be simple, but im just not finding my answer. im trying to figure out how to evenly spread several links across a fixed width. i could manually set the padding or margins for each link, but i figure there has to be a way to do it in css automagically. Well, this would be the first time I actually am starting to use full DIVs to code a website, usually use tables. Anyways, I have most bugs fixed out since I do somewhat know how to code in DIVs - the question is though, on one of the "right" side content area things I have, the content part extending right over the DIV, and even the container. I also gave both with fixed widths, no idea why this is happening. Anyone have any ideas? http://www.futuregamers.net http://www.futuregamers.net/style.css The main body text in IE stays within the width I gave it, but in Firefox, it just goes off the div, its all not showing becasue I have the containing div overflow:hidden, but why won't it stay in the fixed width div, 603px, in Firefox like it does in IE? mediacontour.com/TCS/frequently-asked-questions.php Hi, I'm wondering how do you make two divs next to each other, in line with each other, but have one to the left be a set width, and the one on the right be everything else that is left (changes as the user scales the browser). Here is an example: ( -100px- )( ---------everything else that is left---------- ) (more stuff can go here now) I'm having trouble having one float: left and width: 100px, the other float: right and width: 100% (I think this part is the problem). |
